Cactus on the Hill, San Diego
Golden grass and a prickly pear cactus on a summer hillside. My aunt lives on a canyon in Mission Valley, San Diego, California, and I based this landscape painting on sketches I drew while hiking the canyon.
Started last summer, finished last week!

Nature Morte Aux Champignons
After rooting through the fridge, I got struck with an overwhelming urge to paint this mushroom. I bow to the gods of oil painting!
San Diego Beach Seascape
Wet sand on Blacks Beach in La Jolla, San Diego, California. A great day for painting.

San Diego East County Landscape
The golden summertime hills of California captured my eye years ago, and after finally moving back to California, they are one of my favorite landscape painting subjects. This painting began as a sketch in the natural landscape in San Diego’s East County, near Escondido.
Tecolote Canyon Landscape
Along the hiking trail in Tecolote Canyon, San Diego, California. I really respond to the golden grass contrasted with the green California live oaks. When I lived in Virginia, that was the look of a winter landscape- but here that is the look of summer.

Lime Still Life
House in Mission Hills
Urban landscape oil painting of a house in Mission Hills, San Diego, California. I thought the brown gray of this house was very striking. I love to walk through Mission Hills- what a great area.
Still Life With Guava and Lemon
The makings of a top shelf guavarita.
Original still life painting of a guava and a lemon. It smelled great while I was painting it, which took a couple of days. Inspired by Euan Uglow, I left the measuring marks visible in the finished piece.
La Jolla Beach Cliffs
Original seascape of the cliffs in La Jolla, overlooking Black’s Beach in San Diego, California. The steep steps down the sandy cliffs to the ocean will tell you if you’re in good cardiovascular shape!

Every day I have the urge… hand painted locats… and this time I gave in to that urge.

Earth Day Was Yesterday
Earth Day was yesterday, but I forgot to post a natural landscape that celebrates the environment. So I’m doing it today instead. Update: Earth Day is today! My bad.
Landscape painting of Mission Trails Park in San Diego, California. A natural area with stunning mountain views, grassy meadows and native oaks, and the river flowing through it. I love to paint here.
I began this piece en plein air, but I had forgotten my toned grounds (left them on the table at home) so I was working on spare canvases that I keep in the back of my truck. Working alla prima from white means I’ll need an additional session in the studio to finish the painting, and that’s what I did with this landscape.
